Meet the 8 Republicans Who Support Late-Term Abortions

Last night, the House voted on the DC Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, which seeks to protect unborn babies who by 20 weeks after fertilization, if not earlier, can feel the excruciating pain, according to medical experts.

Currently, in the District of Columbia, abortion is legal, for any reason, up until the moment of birth.

And just 0.7 miles from the White House, the Washington Surgi Clinic advertises that they perform abortions up to 26 weeks, well past the 20 week point at which an unborn child can feel excruciating pain. The clinic also advertises that they perform D&E abortions – see the illustration at the bottom of this post.

The unborn baby is ripped apart, limb by limb, before the baby’s tiny head is crushed. Imagine the pain the defenseless child feels.

These eight Republicans – office phone numbers included – joined 148 Democrats in effectively endorsing this procedure, and a policy of abortion on-demand, for any reason, up to the moment of birth in the shadow of the U.S. Capitol (see full roll call here):
